Many terminal apps don't properly display multibyte emoji characters
|
||||
properly. This **may** fix the issue for you in iTerm2, it also may not.
|
||||
|
||||
By default iTerm2 uses a unicode rendering format
|
||||
that is not comletely compatible with some emoji characters. Instead what you'll
|
||||
see is the emoji over-lapping normal text characters, or drawing outside
|
||||
the bounds of where they should be.
|
||||
|
||||
In iTerm2 open:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
Preferences -> Profiles -> Text
|
||||
```
|
||||
and check **on** the "Use Unicode Version 9 Widths" checkbox. Then
|
||||
restart WTF.
